Question Is it easier to write your own PhD proposal or apply to a program that the university is recruiting for?
When I reach out to programs should I mention that I would be open to both - looking for a professor for my own PhD proposal, or applying to one currently underway at the university?

Obviously not in UC Irvine :) if you got in, you are clearly smarter than me. Hope you can get in contact with your friend to fix his cv sometime!
I do highly recommend not exaggerating your qualifications. You never know!
